The Toyota cross posts include lively discussions on both Ford and GM recalls as well as the rash of Toyota recalls, and as a result brings knowledgeable people from those groups into the discussion who perhaps could counter argue a point that they may have better or more accurate knowledge on. Now if someone creates a message that says "Fords are the best, Toyota and GM sux" and cross posts it, then I agree that that is a cross post that should not have happened, BUT it is not up to me or anyone else to police it. You can police it yourself using filters, not by adding to the friggin' mess. ....and yes - This concerns the three newsgroups I subscribe to, so I cross posted it. Besides, it's not like your nonsense "automatic" deletion posts are actually deleting the posts. They are still there and visible as they always were, so all you are accomplishing is clogging the groups that you seem to want to keep clean and segregated. You are having the opposite effect.
